She is A Survivor

She called me as soon as she was on the way to the station from school, she sounded happy. Alhamdulillah. When I opened the door to welcome her home, she was shivering from the cold wind, yet so warm and bubbly, full of stories of the day to share with me.

In conclusion the 2nd day at school went very well, she made more friends and discovered more things that she liked about the school, among which:

- She changed into her PE attire just like the rest did (smile…..)

- She likes the theater where they can watch movie while waiting for the break time to be over

- She likes the way the teacher will call students out of class to be reprimanded instead of putting them to shame in front of the class

- She likes how her friends all will wait for her, despite she telling them to go first, while she stopped to purchase the train ticket

- She is so simply smitten by the CAD subject as it was far better than her previous school

- She likes when the German language teacher tested her on the language and she got through well

In short she is happier on the second day. However, mama was sad when she decided to inform the homeroom teacher that she is not interested in going for the one week Ski Camp, Reason was that she needed time to get used to all of the new friends, before living together with them during the Camp. Mama can only respect her decision.

Oh by the way, she was also surprised how none of the friends in school were into Facebook, Friendster and so on. Alhamdulillah, I am happy for this.
